The garden has been in development since October
2011 under the guidance of an MCG appointed interim committee. Our thanks go to
members of the interim committee Gill Lee, Nick Collis-George, Tina Jackson and
especially garden coordinator Flicc Walsh, who designed the garden, guided
construction and devised the first planting plan.

We also have some very good news. Bendigo Bank has
provided $1,000 sponsorship support for the Mackie Lane Community Garden. This
is a significant contribution and takes some pressure off the cost of
maintaining gardens. Bendigo Bank Mosman is at Military Rd, Spit
Junction.

individuals setting up gardens and we are working with Mosman Council to
